Overnight strikes have left Kyiv with fires and damaged residential, office and industrial sites after Russian forces launched dozens of missiles and more than a hundred attack drones while Ukraine and Russia traded accusations of strikes and casualties across borders; the episode coincides with political turmoil in Kyiv after the dismissal of Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov and public protests amid concerns about air-defense shortages. In this crisis Christians can uphold truth and mercy by supporting humanitarian care, urging wise and just leadership, and praying and working for peace that protects civilians.
